Definition

The number of maternal deaths from any cause related to or aggravated by pregnancy or its management (excluding accidental or incidental causes) during pregnancy and childbirth or within 42 days of termination of pregnancy, irrespective of the duration and site of the pregnancy.

Method of computation

The Maternal Mortality Rate divided by the General Fertility Rate (GFR) for the same time period, and multiplying the result by 100,000. GFR is calculated by dividing the number of births in a year by the number of women aged 15–49, times 1000.
